[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WWYD I parallel parent and keep interaction at a minimum with ex. His mother passed away and their family wants to hold the funeral the same week as the 8th grade trip/promotion. Although ex is local, Grandma lives across the country. I am upset about the timing. Ex has not shown up to any school activities this year. However he does take custody of kids when scheduled. I asked if they could work around the end of the year activities. I was told no. Grandma saw the kids once a year. WWYD[/quote] If it’s during his window and he’s not interested in switching, not sure there is anything you CAN do. It’s really up to him. If I were coupled and this came up, I’d let the kids decide based on their closeness with grandma. It's a tough spot with either decision in that case. But really it’s his call. You can help her best by letting her process it & listen (without chiming in) if she wants to talk it out [/quote]
